    how to set Word 07 to open draft view by default


    When I open a new document it only takes up a small portion of the screen. When I click the draft view icon the page fills the whole screen. I would like the document to occupy the whole screen by default.
    Thanks

    Hi


    Couple of hits on Google:

    Default to Draft View in Word 2007
    How Do I Change My Default Page Layout View in Word 2007?

    Also note the following (sourced from eggheadcafe)


    Note also that documents, even if saved in Draft view, will not open in
    Draft view unless you have explicitly selected that option in Office Button
    | Word Options | Advanced: General: "Allow opening a document in Draft
    view."

    Regards

    Thanks Lomai

    I discovered that some features of Word 07 don't work in draft view (Live preview eg).The e-How article is a help with the problem I was having.

    Thanks again
